  1. From Bible to Midrash
    From Bible to Midrash
    Beskrivning
    How did David, the glorious king and warrior of the Bible, become a scholar of Torah, a pious and humble prophet, philosopher and poet? In the Midrash, the vast body of interpretative literature created by the early rabbis, David—along with many other biblical personalities—underwent enormous transformations. In the midrashic world, the biblical text was mined for endless meanings, some with relevance to particular historical predicaments or moral dilemmas. The Bible was interpreted and reinterpreted, the process of midrash keeping the ancient texts relevant for each generation and producing a wealth of fascinating traditions. In this book, the development of some of these traditions is examined, with particular attention to how biblical personalities such as Kain and Abel, Moses, Samson and David were transformed in their midrashic portrayals. Other articles in the volume address additional topics related to midrash, including dream-interpretation in rabbinic literature, ‘mystical midrash’, and a pointed challenge to Harold Bloom’s handling of rabbinic literature

  3. Perinatal Death as a Pastoral Problem
    Perinatal Death as a Pastoral Problem
    Beskrivning
    Begagnad bok."This study investigates how perinatal death has been dealt with in pastoral theology mostly within the Church of Sweden and in the Catholic Church compared to the corresponding development in USA and Graet Britain, especially as it can be seen in unofficial and official rituals. The center of the book consists of an interview study with 79 families who lost a child in the perinatal period at Karolinska sjukhuset in Stockholm during the years 1970-77. It is focused on the issue of reality confrontation. This very period is the time of change when it concerns the care of the bereaved parents, which means a change from a protective attitude towards more of confrontation with reality in terms of accepting the child as a child, seeing it and planning for and attending the funeral service. The stillborn children provide a special pastoral challenge. The last part of the study deals with rituals

    Protestant and Roman Catholic Ethics Prospects for Rapprochement
    Beskrivning
    If Catholic and Protestant ethicians were asked to name a single theologian who was qualified to write a comprehensive overview of the historical divergences of Catholic and Protestant positions on ethical questions, the bases for those divergences in fundamentally different philosophical and theological perspectives, and the possibilities for future convergences of the traditions, my guess is that James Gustafson would be the one. . . .
